Soulac-sur-Mer and the Médoc Peninsula
Soulac lies by the Atlantic, near the northern tip of the Médoc Peninsula and close to the Gironde Estuary. In imitation of the then new English fashion of sea bathing, the present small town was established as a resort in the 1870s, thanks to a railway link from Bordeaux. From those times until the 1930s an astonishing collection of holiday villas was built in a style (Soulacaise) that is unique. Around 500 of them remain, ranging from little chalets to small châteaux.

Dog Walks
There are numerous possibilities, many of them easily reached without using a car. First, are the Atlantic beaches, providing fine sand with shallow pools at low tide. During the Summer Season, the most crowded lengths of beach (watched by lifeguards and indicated by marker boards) are closed to dogs; these are generally in the centres of resorts. This restriction does not apply to the beach immediately opposite our Apartment. Then there are extensive marked trails or surfaced tracks through the pine forests. Finally, within a short drive of Soulac is the fascinating tidal Estuary of the Gironde (of World War II Cockleshell Heroes fame). Various footpaths run along the shoreline and connect tiny little fishing ports. Further ideas can be gleaned from the range of large-scale maps of the Médoc Peninsula that we have provided for the use of guests

Local Area - Many visitors want nothing more than to relax by the sea and eat out at one of the numerous restaurants. Equally, this lovely region of SW France has much to offer the more active tourist.Attractions include :

Wines of the Médoc.

Surfing. Conditions are among the very best in Europe. Equipment and tuition available.

Riding. Children and adults alike can explore tracks through the pine forests on horse-back.

Boat trips. Excursions afloat include explorations of the Gironde Estuary and a visit to the 400-year old Cordouan Lighthouse, where you can climb 220 feet for an unforgettable ocean view.

Shopping. Soulac’s Rue de la Plage, running through the town centre, is bustling with stores to tempt the holiday-maker. The daily indoor market offers a splendid choice of food, wines and a fantastic assortment of fresh local seafood. Takeaways range from the finest chef-prepared French cuisine to Chinese.

Naturist beaches. Nude bathing is famous along the French Atlantic coast. Soulac has its own official ‘wild’ beach, a little south of the town, while day visitors are welcomed at nearby Euronat, probably the world’s largest naturist village established in 828 acres of coastal pine forest.

Architecture. Everywhere in Soulac you can admire the French Colonial style villas, unique in Europe. The 11th century church of Notre Dame de la Fin-Des-Terres, engulfed by sand dunes until the 19th century, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Roman and older history is recorded in the town’s Archaeological Museum. • Wines of the Médoc. With more than 1,000 wine estates on the Peninsula, many of the châteaux welcome visitors with produce at all price levels, from draught to vintage bottled. And if you want the very best…..
